The Beginning of a Dream

Revealed

"We're the same Reffan. You did all the way to get Safira. You think I don't know all the ways you're gonna get it. Then am I wrong to do all the ways to get you?" Claudia shouted making Reffan undo his steps.

"Don't ever equate me with you Claudia. Did you see me hurt someone? You should be able to see me focus on Sapphira no matter the people around her as long as they don't bother Safira. And you're Claudia, you dare approach my wife and hurt her." Jerky Reffan.

Claudia choked to see the sharp net of Reffan.

"Are those thugs Claudia as well?" Reffan approached Claudia observing the reaction on Claudia's face.

Claudia was puzzled to hide her reaction that had been caught off guard by Reffan.

"And the fall of Sapphira in front of the lobby was also your work?" The voice of Reffan has deafened anyone who is there. "Aarrgh". Reffan kicked the table in front of the sofa making his glass fall scattered. Reffan's anger has reached the crown. Claudia retreated until there was no more air behind her, her body already stuck to the wall. His feet trembled in fear, he did not expect Reffan to be this scared when he was angry.

"Claudia. If you still dare to disturb Sapphira, I will not care who your parents are. If your parents can't educate you, maybe the prison can teach you more sane."

Reffan left the room. If he were still there, Reffan would forget that if Claudia was a woman he would beat her mercilessly.

Now in Reffan's room there's only Claudia and Bayu. Bayu called Reffan's secretary.

"Diana please bring the scissors to Mr. Reffan's room." He said to Reffan's secretary and then hung up his phone.

It didn't take long for Diana to give Bayu the scissors. When Diana will come out.

"Si, you stay here." Sayu said to Diana but her net looked at the scissors swirling on her finger.

"Miss Claudia, you know I'm not a patient person. So quickly tell me what you've done to Ms Safira?"

"I don't understand what you're saying." Claudia quickly tried to cover up her fear.

"alright. Don't blame me, I've spoken well with you. Diana held her hand."

"What do you want don't be rude to you. You don't know who I am." Claudia panicked as Diana pulled both of Claudia's hands back. This was an easy matter for Diana as she had a great stature. Diana was very grateful when accepted as Reffan secretary in Surabaya because usually the secretary is identical with sexy women but Reffan chose her because of her dexterity and speed in work.

"Hi what do you want, fucking secretary. Don't you dare approach me." Claudia shouted trying to break free. Bayu got closer while playing the scissors in his right hand.

"I've given you the opportunity to talk. Looks like a bald hairstyle fits you Miss." Bayu smiled asymmetrical grabbing the ends of Claudia's hair.

Reffan was in his room, punching the wall that was in front of him.

"Stupid, how could I be this kind of misfit. I've been causing Safira harm all this time." His hand again punched the wall in front of him.

Reffan did not expect Claudia to be that determined, let alone dare to harm Sapphira. Their parents' relationship has been good all along. His parents had indeed stated to match their children but Reffan's parents gave up all decisions about life companion to their children because they will live their entire lives as long as they do not violate the norm.

The phone on his shirt vibrated to reveal Bayu's name.

"Yes. Wait in the pool." His reply was brief to give instructions to his assistant.

Reffan immediately came back out of his room to meet Bayu.

"It's Sir. This is what caused Safira's mother to leave."

His photos with women taken from a very fitting point of view make it look as if Reffan is making out with a woman. But the original incident is not entirely as seen in the photo.

"And this is the original video." Bayu opens a file for Reffan.

In the video, the real events are seen when suddenly a woman hits her when Reffan is about to sit down with his friend. The woman touched Reffan's chest and Reffan pulled the woman's arm because the woman did not immediately move away from him. So Reffan touched the woman's arm to pull her away. He didn't like any little women nearby. But the screenshot results of the photos sent to Safira said another. The point of view can make it much different from reality.

"What did you do to Claudia?" Reffan asked his assistant after he finished watching the video.

"Where is he now?"

"It's gone sir. She begged her parents not to be told of all her behavior."

"Huh, still dare he say that. Send the photo and video to my number."

"It's sir."

"Now take me to Sapphira. Time to punish him."

"Sir, what do you want to do? I don't think Ms. Safira is entirely wrong maybe..." The words of Bayu have been broken by Reffan.

"Why are you defending him. He shouldn't have left without saying anything. It's my business you don't need to know what I'm going to do." Reffan smiled grinning.

"Sorry Sir."

"Now take me to Sapphira's place. I took my stuff you used to wait in the lobby."

"Good Sir."

Safira rarely goes out of the room. He only came out while taking food. Safira spends her time reading books while occasionally glancing at her cell phone. His chest was pounding every time his phone vibrated. The hope that Reffan contacted her was always to fly away. Disappointed, of course that's what Safira felt, Safira felt Reffan had forgotten about it because he met the woman in the photo.

"Wrong. I was wrong to decide to get married but did not know my future husband personally. My feelings at that time were so skewed towards her, I became slow to think near her. I thought he was a different man. In fact, I am the one who is carried away feeling without thinking carefully. Is it that easy? Women in and out of your life?" A drop of clear liquid escaped from Sapphira's closed eyes. Now his body curled up in bed alone hugging the book he had just read, the book that accompanied his solitude in the longing that had not yet brimmed.

Reffan had already arrived at the cottage in the afternoon but suddenly he was shutting down to see Sapphira tonight. Withstood an agonizing longing, he was sure that even now Sapphire felt the same, tormented away from him. Safira insisted on not contacting him so he would also refrain tonight at the cottage next to his wife. Bayu had been told to find another hotel so as not to stay in the same place with him and Safira.

So these are two people who miss each other but are reluctant to give up for the sake of a partner's belief that is wrong.

Morning at cottage restaurant. Beautiful girl with Navi long-sleeved t-shirt, jeans skirt and hijab in line with her clothes are dangled in her strands. Color contrasting with its pure white skin. From a table far enough away a man stared intently at another man who looked at the girl with a fixed gaze full of meaning.

From any side Safira is fascinating. When forgiven he is already charming like a model who is doing a photo shoot with all poses when clearly there is no striking makeup on his face just his natural face makes people happy to look at him for long.

Usually Safira would re-enter his room after breakfast.

"Why do you feel goosebumps.." Safira gave his glance. "I think I'm cold because I haven't moved for days. A short walk in the sun looks good." Safira set foot to see the scenery presented around the cottage, the atmosphere of the mountains with many trees is the most comfortable place according to Safira.

Sapphira did not realize that two men were following her. A man hastened his steps towards Sapphira, but another man confronted him.

"Do you have any business with my wife?" Reffan confronted the man who had been staring fixedly at his wife just as the man was getting closer to Sapphira.

"Your wife?" The man narrowed his eyes.

"The hijab woman you follow is my wife."

"Oh yeah? If it's your wife you shouldn't be far away from her. Ah, well if it's your wife, I thought she was alone because she didn't seem touched." Without guilt the man left Reffan just like that.

Reffan glared, "Basic crocodile, you know Safira has not been touched." Exasperated Reffan there was a man who looked at his wife's body even though Sapphira's clothes were loose.

"That's it, go back to the room." Sapphira turned her back and was surprised that the handsome man she missed was looking at her.

"It's over with the charm." Flat Reffan vibe.

Sapphira turned back her steps away but due to the uncontrolled pounding of her heart she did not realize the road through which was hollow and...

"Law... Azaghfirullah." Safira's great-grandson fell down holding her sprained leg.
